Visitors to this aquarium located underneath a 30.7-meter-tall glass dome can see schools of Pacific bluefin tuna, swimming penguins, and various rare creatures from all around the world.
There are also corners featuring giant kelp, which is the world’s largest variety of seaweed, and sea birds, for whom the ocean is an important place in their lives.
There is also a self-service restaurant, as well as a gift shop where you can purchase souvenirs.
Highlights
-
The sight of Pacific bluefin tuna swimming in an enormous 2200-ton donut-shaped aquarium is a thrilling experience.
-
The aquarium boasts Japan’s largest penguin exhibition facility, which includes both Humboldt and fairy penguins. Visitors can watch penguins moving around both on land and in the water.
-
We also recommend visiting the Freshwater Life Center, which recreates a Japanese mountain stream.
-
Guided tours with aquarium staff (limit of 10 people, free) are held twice a day (11:00am, 1:30pm). (※May be cancelled on days expected to be very busy.)
-
We recommend trying the tuna cutlet curry at the “Sea Wind” restaurant!
-
It’s great fun to come to the aquarium by water bus from Ryogoku or Odaiba Marine Park! (※Please see the Tokyo Mizube Cruising Line’s website for water bus operation status.)

It's just one subway stop from Disneyland, so if you have some time to kill, it's worth checking out. The tickets are cheap, and elementary school kids get in for free. Plus, the aquarium building itself has a really unique design.
